was told the blitz smic is a direct replacement.

having a hard time fitting everything in and also not sure what stock pipings to use to connect it back to the tb and crossover pipe.

any help?

also i noticed my SMIC is pushing in some of the fan wires

 

Looks like the elbow on the top of the IC is significantly longer than the stock one. I'm not sure of the answer, unless you could slip the stock hose way down over the outlet.

 

Who maintains your car?The idler pulley for the AC/PS belt is on backwards!As for the the SMIC,they are normally sold as a kit including hoses etc.I have attached apic of a Greddy SMIC kit which is similar to the Blitz,except for the outlet.

 

just got the car. ill fix that asap.

mmm well i can't really get the whole kit since its discontinued so need a fix

dan

 

It uses stock hard piping on the inlet size and some silicon hoses to finish the connections.

 

bump for an update on what course of action was taken...

I used to have that IC and that was how it installed

 

For the top you could just use a section of long silicone tubing to make the connection.

For the bottom part, you look to be missing the 90 degree hard pipe. HKS and RE-A makes these and you can find them in the for sale section from time to time. The set actually includes the lower hard pipe and the top hard pipe, but the top one won't work with the blitz. Top hard pipe only works with the greddy/RE-A design and stock elbow.

The blitz has that long curved pipe on top, where the greddy and re-a one's are straight and cut off close to the IC core.
